Hi Giangiorgio,

 

a splendid action photo of this tern! You have catured the successful dive of the bird into the water brilliantly; the water, the bird and its prey in focus, lighting, colors and DoF flawless and beautiful. Into my favorites! Kind regards, Vincent

Perfect timing Giangiorgio! It is an amazing splash for such a small bird, and the sharpness and details are fantastic. Well done! Todd

Ciao Giangiorgio, una foto molto bella di questa sterna da pesca. La colonna d'acqua ci dà anche un'idea degli avvenimenti del momento precedente. Sandor

Il fraticello ha normalmente zampe e becco gialli. Questa ha zampe e becco rossi che mi ricordano quelli della sterna comune (Sterna hirundo). Comunque è un'ottima foto, ciao Sandor

Ti ringrazio tanto Sandor per il tuo bel commento molto apprezzato, La fronte bianca mi ha indotto a pensare che si trattasse di un Fraticello, forse i caldi colori del tramonto hanno accentuato il colore. Nella stessa seduta fotografica ho fotografato anche le sterne comuni con il capo completamente nero e con il becco e le zampe rosse.
